05 Tb Evo

Hi guys,
Im obviously new to the board. I just purchased a 2005 tarmac black EVO with 0% financing. It was incredible how unwilling the dealers were to haggle. Especially with the 0% financing noone wanted to give me a price break. I eventually purchased my car in Rahway NJ from a fellow pollack and have since then put 250 miles on it. The car's handling is simply amazing. I have never taken 90 degree turns so fast in my life. Im still breaking it in and i have slipped up with my shifting and the tach has gone past 4500 rpm. Here are some pics

They didn't want to lower the price because they had to give up there dealer cash when you took the 0%. So you just made there profit margin go down by $1000 and that doesn't even include hold back. The dealercash is the dealers haggle money, when you said i want 0% all neogotations went out the window. I sell them but we just give the dealercash away so there is no BS. Nice car by the way, Black is a awesome color on the evos!

so, if a car's invoice i x dollars, then the dealer has x +$1000 + holdback to play with? i dont understand.

I just got my 05 Evo, Electric Blue. Personally, I think that your dealer just sucks, I'm paying 3k under sticker price. And that's including the 0% bit. But, I think I kinda took advantage of them, They've been talking to Mitsubishi about getting a Evo IX, but since they had so many VIII's on the lot, they had to get rid of them all first... Who Knows?

I guess you went to Bell Mitsubishi in Rahway.

I visited them about 1-month ago, but they didn't have a rally red Evo w/SSL at that time; only a white one.

Enjoy your car.

Nice to see a fellow NJ'er with an Evo.
